Council flicks switch on solar power scheme

The Team from Marlborough District Council

Marlborough ratepayers wanting to switch to solar power can now call on Council for assistance. As part of a recently launched initiative, ratepayers now have the option of adding the installation cost of solar panels, by an approved provider, to their rates bill.

Ratepayers then pay back the Council for the cost of the installation through a targeted rate over nine years, alongside an administration fee and a 5.5 per cent standard interest rate, which will be reviewed annually.

The scheme encourages the switch to solar power in an effort to improve affordability of clean, home heating and energy supply.
